Feeling Domestic

Last week I made a hot/cold pack from my old ripped pajamas. Then, I made some homemade baby wipes, from paper towels, and it turned out awesome! And yesterday, I made some healthy, baked chicken nuggets for the kids. I made a huge batch and froze them. Both Talmage and Emma love nuggets and I was tired of giving them ones filled with preservatives and fried. Easy and yummy solution!

Eternal Marriage

"An eternal marriage is eternal. Eternal implies continuing growth and improvement. It means that man and wife will honestly try to perfect themselves. It means that the marriage relationship is not to be frivolously discarded at the first sign of disagreement or when times get hard. It signifies that love will grow stronger with time and that it extends beyond the grave. It means that each partner will be blessed with the company of the other partner forever and that problems and differences might as well be resolved because they are not going to go away. Eternal signifies repentance, forgiveness, long-suffering, patience, hope, charity, love, and humility. All of these things are involved in anything that is eternal, and surely we must learn and practice them if we intend to claim an eternal marriage."(F. Burton Howard, "Eternal Marriage," Ensign, May 2003, 92-93)
